Profanity In Writing

Profanity in writing can be OK if it is actually useful or realistic, and not just in there for it to be in there. If the profanity is realistic, meaning that it is fitting for the situation, and how describes how a real person would act in the scenario, then yes, it's fine. If a swear is just in there so a swear can be in there, and there's no real purpose for it, it can kind of just ruin a work. For instance, some superhero movies should have a PG rating, but waste that chance just by adding in a swear word. I would still watch a movie or read a book that has profanity in it (pretty much every movie nowadays does). People who use profanity are fine, because everyone does at some point. However, gratuitous profanity has no reason. Many people use profanity gratuitously (*cough*my uncle*cough*). And still, I'm fine with that, I just don't feel it to be necessary.
